Chapter 5: L0VE AT FIRST SIGHT
A/N: Sorry I didn't update in a while. I was thinking about discontinuing my story but a few reviewers told me not to. Next update will probably be Accidentally falling in love with you. Well please enjoy!! - Oh and I won't be updating all of March because I will be leaving for an onsen and just relaxing.
Oh yes and I have to kind of rush this chapter in because I only have 3 hours on the computer, so don't mind if it's rushed, and weird. Oh and also remember that I am going by my favorite soap opera Majo no Jouken. In the soap opera they fall in love really fast, I am trying to make it slower in my fiction because no one can fall in love that fast. Love takes time.
Last chapter: SxS kiss for real.
The sweet taste of his lips was sending her through ecstasy. She clung onto his neck and brought him closer to her while deepening the kiss. Sakura moaned with pleasure as she felt him enter his tongue within her mouth. ( A/N: Mushy scenes make me feel sick…)
They released from each other for a second but were still keeping eye contact with each other.
" Wow…." Was all that Sakura managed to say. Syaoran definitely had experience if he sent her through that much pleasure with just a kiss. It was a moment in her life she would never forget.
Syaoran only smirked at her as she slightly blushed. " Dare to try again?" Sakura could only nod as she tilted her head towards him.
" W-what is th-the meaning of th-this???" A trembling Meiling screamed while watching the two in each other's arms.
Both couldn't speak. Sakura let go of Syaoran and looked down. ' I'm in deep trouble now.'
Meiling walked up to Sakura and gave her the deadliest glare you could ever imagine. She then slapped her across the face. A stinging pain was felt as Sakura held her cheek gingerly.
" What are you thinking? You sick woman!" Meiling started screaming curses at her back to back.
" He's mine don't you…" Syaoran interrupted her.
" It's my fault… I … I started it." Syaoran answered bravely.
Meiling only looked at him with pure shock written all over her face.
' What is this pain I feel in my heart? Is it betrayal? Or maybe….. Could it be a heart-break.'
Meiling shook her head viciously. " No…" She screamed angrily.. " I didn't hear that. I won't believe it."
Sakura eyed Syaoran and then looked down. What was to happen now? If Meiling tells someone, It ruins… The both of us. Sakura nervously scratched her head and then noticed the glimmering diamond on her hand. What kind of person was she? She just cheated on her fiancée. Sakura felt hot tears streaming down her face. What is happening to her?
She couldn't think… The only thing she could think of doing was the thing she was doing the day before. Running away.
Sakura turned toward a dark scary alley, but she didn't care. It was the only place to run to. She turned to the corner but felt a strong hand pull her back. It was Meiling.
" I'm not done with you yet." Meiling pushed her against a wall. Sakura trembled with fear as she looked into Meiling's fire red eyes.
" Meiling… Please stop." Sakura trembled between words. Never in her entire life has she felt so scared.
" You are the reason he's not paying attention to me! You are the reason he ignores me. Why are you seducing him Kinomoto? Can't find any guys your age? Why do you take the only thing that matters to me? WHY?!" Meiling had tears already streaming down he face as she held her against the cold wall.
" Meiling stop!" Syaoran pulled her away from Sakura. He then pointed to Meiling with anger. " You drive me crazy, that's why I ignore you. You are ridiculously attached to me, so that's why I'm not paying any attention to you. Don't take your anger out of sensei… Just look in the mirror Meiling. What has come over you?"
Meiling wiped the tears off her cheek with a hurt expression written all over her face. " Why? Why do you take her side Syaoran? You knew me for your whole life, and her for what? Like two days?"
" Because I care about her!" Syaoran screamed out. Meiling's eyes widened, as did Sakura's.
Meiling looked down at her feet. She felt down slowly as if she were to break down. This couldn't be happening to her. " And what about me? Don't you care for me too?" Meiling mumbled.
" Yea…. But not as much as I care for her.." Syaoran pointed to the auburn haired girl. Meiling could only shake her head, not believing the words coming out of his mouth.
Sakura couldn't believe what he just said. Did he feel the same as she felt for him? Sure it wasn't love but it was something more then friendship. Their relationship was a mere case of love at first sight. Sakura looked down at the breaking down girl. She was on her knees already, her head was between them as she heard her sob lightly.
Meiling roughly got up her eyes were red and swollen. She then pointed to Sakura. " Society will not agree with this love. It's forbidden." Sakura was just about to comment but Meiling interrupted her. " I'm not letting you go so easily Syaoran." She glanced at him. " And as for you Kinomoto. You just messed with the wrong person. I could send you through living hell. S-o you better watch your back." Meiling walked away as she disappeared into the darkness.
Sakura shivered. ' What could she do to me?'
Syaoran gave her a reassuring look ' Don't worry.' He nodded to her. Even if Sakura couldn't hear what he said, it was like a connection. She just knew what he was thinking at that point. Sakura sighed. ' I hope so.'

Meiling entered Syaoran's penthouse with anger. She slammed the door shut and lied on the couch.
Yelan came running into the room to only find a steaming Meiling on the couch, her son was no where to be seen.
" What's wrong dear?" Yelan walked up to Meiling.
Meiling looked down and then smiled faintly. She looked up at her aunt and started to fake cry. Covering her hands on her face.
" You know Syaoran's teacher?" Yelan could only nod, confused about what could cause the ever so refined Meiling to act like this.
" Well I saw her outside a club kissing him. It was so horrible. It seems as if she got him drunk, so he would kiss her back!" Meiling lied. " I yelled at the woman but Syaoran would only take her side because he was too drunk to think about what he was saying!"
Yelan's eyes widened as she listened to Meiling's story. She couldn't believe that his teacher would do that to him! What kind of person was she? Is this the reason why she wanted to become a high school teacher, to hit on the younger men?
Yelan patted Meiling's back, as she cried into her shoulder. " Shh darling. I'll make sure to take care of that woman for you." After hearing that Meiling could only smile. ' Told you I am not a person to mess around with..'

Sakura took a taxi home that night. She could only feel frightened about what could happen the next day. What did Meiling mean when she said " I could send you through living hell'? Could a seventeen year old really do that to her? Did she have enough power to? Sakura shook it off. She was probably just very angry. What could she do to her?
She suddenly felt her phone ringing. She looked at the caller ID. It was a private number…
" Moshi moshi?" Sakura said nervously.
She could hear heavy breathing on the other line. " Kinomoto…"
" Who is this?" Sakura said. Fear showing in her voice.
" Be prepared. Step one is already done. Better watch your back." Then she heard a clicking sound.
' What does that mean? Step one is already done?' Sakura shivered at the thought of that person's voice.
She started to panic franticly. Never in her life has she been threatened. Sakura felt her phone going off again. A person from a private number was calling her once more.
" What do you want?!" Sakura screamed onto the other line.
" Sensei?" A familiar voice replied. Sakura sighed in relief.
" Oh sorry I thought you were somebody else." She apologized.
" Sensei… Meiling told my mom." Syaoran's voice cracked as he said it.
Sakura wanted to drop the phone from shock. " W-what. Will happen now?"
" I'm not sure, but it's trouble." A voice was heard from Syaoran's phone.
" I have to go now. " He hung up just before Sakura could hear some cursing about her.
Sakura dug her head into a pillow. ' What was going to happen?' Sakura wanted to rewind and delete everything so she could just forget about it. She leaned against her pillow and lay lifelessly on her bed. She closed her eyes tightly while trying to pretend it was all a dream.
And before she knew it she has fallen asleep.
Sakura woke up to the sound of her alarm clock. She stretched out and yawned tiredly. " What a terrible dream!" She walked into the bathroom drowsily and poured ice cold water onto her face. She wiped her face with a clean towel and walked downstairs to have breakfast.
That was the weirdest dream. Sakura thought. It seemed so real, though. Sakura sighed and greeted her mother. " Ohaya mama." Sakura gave her a quick peck on the cheek before taking a bite of a bagel.
" Ohayo. How was your day with Keisuke?" Her mother questioned.
" It was great actually. We picked out places to have our wedding." Sakura then dropped her bagel, the cream cheese dropped on the counter. ' It wasn't a dream!' Sakura started to panic on the inside and outside too. She suddenly felt a sick pain in her stomach. What were to happen to her today?
Her father walked into the room, and slammed the newspaper down with force. Sakura looked at him questioningly. ' I wonder what got him so mad.'
He looked up, anger boiled inside his eyes. As he walked over to Sakura. Nadeshiko looked confused also. " Dad what's wrong?"
He then slapped Sakura across the face. Sakura fell to the ground as the wincing pain started to pass. She looked up to her dad as he starred down at her with hawk like eyes.
Nadeshiko could only gasp. " Have you gone mad?!"
That was the first time her dad ever hit her. That was the first time he ever looked down at her like that, with so much disappointment in his eyes.
" Have you no respect?" Her father shouted to her.
" What is this craziness about Fujitaka?" Sakura's mother argued while hugging Sakura, who now was paralyzed on the floor.
" That daughter of ours had an affair with one of her students! Now the mother is complaining and the council just told me, Sakura needs to resign. Or else our family will be sued." He yelled so loudly that neighbors could probably hear.
Sakura looked down ashamed.
" I worked so hard so you to get that job, and what do you do? Hit on a student?" Her father rose his hand up once more.
Sakura closed her eyes expecting to feel another slap upon her.
She saw her mother stand in front of her protectively. " Abuse is not a way to take out your anger!" Nadeshiko yelled. Sakura gasped with amazement. That was the first time her mother spoke up to her father like that.
Fujitaka growled with even more anger. " Why do you always take her side?"
" You never even gave her a chance to speak, you just assumed. She may have a good reason."
Fujitaka just shook his head and brought his hands up to his head as he tried to control his anger and agitation. How he hated it when the woman was right, but he wouldn't let her win. Women were never meant to win, the father was the ruler of the house. No way would he let his wife win this fight.
" I don't care what she says. She has gotten fired and this is her last day teaching, tomorrow she will have to pack up and leave! What will come of her next? Do you know how hard it will be to find her a job after this is written in her record?" Fujitaka fired back.
" I'm sure Sakura could get another job! She is very smart!" Nadeshiko argued. At that moment Sakura could not appreciate her mom more. She was standing up for her… She didn't even flinch when her dad yelled at her. She never realized how brave and courageous her mother was till now.
Fujitaka growled once more and rose his voice up. " Would you just stop giving me all these sassy remarks! The girl needs to be punished." He began to take of her belt. Sakura started to walk back slowly with fear. He was going to use his belt to punish her.
Nadeshiko touched his hand down before he could remove it completely. " Why don't we all talk about this calmly at the table."
Fujitaka just pushed her out of his way into a table. Nadeshiko trembled and fell to the floor.
" Mama!" Sakura screamed as she watched her fall. She saw her dad coming up towards her with the belt in her hand. He glared at her and straightened his glasses. Sakura did the only thing she could to at the moment. Run.
She ran to the only place where she could feel safe at the moment. Sakura didn't care if she was still in her pajamas. She wanted to be comforted. And the only person who could do that was the person who knew her best. Tomoyo.

He fidgeted as he leaned against the cold white wall. He was currently outside of the school president's office. His mother was having a conference with the president. She was requesting Kinomoto's removal at Tomoeda High.
The door screeched open slowly as a lady with sepia brown hair told him to enter. Syaoran nervously took the open seat that was next to his mother.
" Well first I would like to ask you some questions." The president opened up a blue folder and started writing down something.
" Okay. Did Kinomoto Sakura force you into drinking yesterday."
" No." Syaoran answered surely. What kind of questions were these?
" Did Kinomoto force you into kissing her?"
" No…"
" Did Kinomoto seduce you in any way since you came to this school?"
" No."
" Did Kinomoto……….."
" No."
"Did Kinomoto.."
" No."
Syaoran felt like some sort of mental person In a hospital. They were asking unbelievable and stupid questions.
" Did…"
" Don't you get it yet? I was the one to start it!" Syaoran slammed his hand on the table.
Yelan patted his shoulder. " Stop making up such nonsense. Just tell the truth Syaoran. You don't have to lie to us."
" But it's not a lie!" Syaoran yelled bluntly. He removed himself from the table and walked outside.
His mom followed him outside. " Xiao lang. Come back here!" She yelled as she watched her son disappear in the distance.
He walked out the door and leaned against the school wall. He closed his amber eyes as he let out a small sigh. He breathed in the smell of the fresh cherry blossoms as the wind them floated across the field,
He looked to his right and saw his Kinomoto, and another young lady talking in the parking lot. They exchanged hugs, and the raven-haired girl left in her car. Syaoran walked up to her, and Sakura just looked down.
" I'm fired from my job now.." Sakura then smiled. " It's not your fault don't worry."
Syaoran shook his head. " It is my fault! What are you going to do?"
Sakura just smiled reassuringly. " Well I'm getting married, so maybe I just won't work." Then she looked to the side, students were started to come in through the gate. " Li-kun. I don't think we should see each other in private anymore. It has just gone too far. I just had a talk with my best friend and she helped me through this. I think just keeping away from each other is the best solution."
Syaoran knew that that was the best conclusion but he couldn't stand not being by her. Sakura was special to him. He couldn't just not-ever see her again, this was the first person he ever actually liked, and maybe even possibly love.
Sakura smiled sadly and then turned around.
" matte…" Syaoran called out. Sakura turned around and tilted her head in curiosity.
" Can you just met me one more time, at that beach?" Syaoran pleaded.
Sakura wasn't sure what she wanted to do. " Maybe."
With that she turned around and started to walk to the main office.
Syaoran turned around and walked right passed Meiling, not even taking a moment to notice her.
' Syaoran… Soon you'll be all mine, and that Kinomoto girl will be just a thing in the past.'
